Walking into the secret dock built deep underground, Todd looked at the giant giant in front of him, and stood there in shock, without moving for a while.

A huge black battleship half built, quietly located in the center of the underground dock, lying on a wooden ship frame with a height of three stories, almost occupying the entire underground cave space.

Compared with the experimental alien warship that had participated in the sea battle of Guyan City in the past, this huge warship was nearly ten times larger than the former in terms of length and drainage. To compare, the comparison between the two ships is like putting an apple and a cherry together.

This new type of warship is black, with faint metallic reflective colors. It adopts a spindle-shaped hull structure, completely abandoning sails and horns, and the common double-shaft propeller is selected for the propeller. The bottom of the ship is equipped with a steering function. The bottom rudder and ailerons. From the appearance point of view, it is obviously similar to the modern battleship of the previous life, and it is more in line with the design style of fluid mechanics.

Around the battleship, thousands of workers, scholars and crew members are intensively carrying out a series of construction and tests around the battleship.

The sound of knocking and dialogue spread throughout the cave. Although it is late at night, everyone's face is filled with enthusiasm for work, and there is no sign of fatigue or boredom.

"The Holy King is here!"

With a loud shout, everyone who was busy with work looked at the visitors at the gate in surprise. After a brief loss of consciousness, the people hurriedly dropped their work, kneeled on the ground, and headed in the direction where Todd had come. , Praises one after another, endless.

"The total length is 107.5 meters, the full-load displacement is 2130 tons, the total width is 9.68 meters, and the draft is 3.81 meters." Facing his brainchild, Wayne walked to the front of the battleship, looking up at the bow of the ship. The limbs of the creeping parasite proudly said: "The maximum ship speed is 4.1 kilometers per hour, and the standard crew is 201, including 167 Crusades and 34 humans."

Passing through the staff kneeling on the ground, Todd slowly walked to the base of the battleship and approached a little closer. Only then did he feel the hugeness of the battleship and the insignificance of human beings.

Todd looked at the connection between the ship armor and the ship armor, the tangled keel tentacles, and asked: "This is the module you are talking about?"

Wayne nodded to the assistant behind him, who blew the whistle around his neck.

After a while, the originally tightly-fitted battleship armor began to gradually deform, one after another parasite decks, loosening the connections between each other's limbs, deformed into independent insect body units.

Seeing an orc jumping off the hull with a keel parasite that was separated and shaped like a huge iron plate, Wayne said, "Your Majesty, as I said before, every host controls A hull module, and the modules are connected by the keel's nervous system to ensure the smooth transmission of commands from the bridge."

Todd asked: "How many modules are there in the entire ship?"

"The entire warship is divided into six major areas, namely the command area, the power area, the armor area, the cabin area, the weapon area, and the reconnaissance area."

"Among them, the command area has three modules, that is, three pairs of keel parasites, including a main command module and two deputy command modules."

"The power area includes 16 modules, including 6 propeller modules, 6 bearing modules, and 4 linkage modules."

"The armor area refers to the outer armor and inner armor of the hull. The outer armor has 65 modules and the inner armor has 35 modules."

"The cabin area includes the hull frame and internal nervous system wiring, which together have 32 modules."

"The modules for the weapon area and the reconnaissance area are still being manufactured, and the number is still uncertain."

After listening to Wayne's introduction, Todd asked: "How is the control of the module and how the host of the parasite is arranged?"

Wayne waved to Todd, motioning him to walk up the stairs to the top of the hull to take a look.

Todd Yiyan walked up the stairs and came to the construction site of the hull. Looking inward through the unfinished parts, the dense parasite limbs connected countless keels together. Among them, some keels changed into cabins, some changed into floors, and some changed into lines.

Many keel modules are immersed in a viscous liquid. In their center, a host can be vaguely seen sitting or lying inside.

Pointing to the internal structure of the hull, Wayne explained: “The keel limbs of most modules are immersed in a special nutrient solution. During non-war periods, the keel parasites enter a dormant state. Consumption can be provided by nutrient solution. At this time, the host can temporarily escape from the parasite module and carry out free activities such as eating, sleeping, and entertainment in the ship."

"Once entering a state of war, the host must immediately return to the body of the parasite module, respond to the command from the command module, and enter the activation mode attributable to its own module ~lightnovelpub.net~ and the keel parasite will begin to extract the host body The nutrients are used for consumption during the war."

Todd thought for a while, and then asked: "If this battleship is put into a state of war, how long can the nutrients in the host support it?"

Wayne touched his chin and said as he meditated: "This time is not fixed, it will constantly change according to the situation of the battlefield."

"Let me give an example. For example, if we need to engage in close combat with enemy warships, then the armor of the ship will inevitably endure a large number of artillery attacks. Although all armor modules can be continuously repaired through regeneration, this repair requires consumption. The host has a lot of nutrients in the body. Intuitively, if you use the numbers to say, assuming that the control of the ship armor module is a standard physique orc, then the ship armor module will appear in about two hours after the uninterrupted gunfire is hit. The circumstances of death."

"But if it is to attack the enemy from a long distance, then the most stressed will be the module host that controls the weapon system. If the huge guns of the alien destroyers are fired at the maximum power, they will fire about nine times in a row, regardless of rest. Endanger the life of the weapon module host."

"Weapon system? Giant cannon?" Todd looked around and suddenly asked Wayne back, "Why didn't I see the weapons of this warship?"

Wayne nodded, and reached out his hand to point towards the cave behind the dock: "The weapon of this warship is the most absolute secret in the entire alien weapon research. Its experimentation and manufacturing are placed in a safer place. Moreover. , Its power is destined to not be placed in this narrow place."

Todd looked at the cave at the end of the dock with a curious look on his face.

He jumped off the wooden frame and said to Wayne: "Go, take me to see the battleship cannon in your mouth."
